I mean if they're grilled when a group of x number of people all come in claiming 9,900 dollars each I bet the OP would crumple like a brown paper bag.

I used to work surveillance at a casino, and the regulars in the lower premium areas would constantly try and dodge around the mandatory reporting amounts when cashing out. Once, a regular handed off a $5k chip to another regular, who they obviously knew by sight but weren't friends, to cash out for her. The other regular promptly walked straight out the casino. Strangely, security weren't particularly sympathetic.

Also if those "To Catch a Smuggler" shows are at all accurate, if it was at all legit, it's a nothingburger of a conversation. "I have declared $20k, it is a down payment for a house, here is my paystub and bank statement to show it is legally gained income." "Ok thanks you can go, we are gonna go grill that 80-year-old lady who is trying to transport clandestine apples in her purse." But yeah when they see a husband and wife each carrying just under the limit they start salivating and bring out the thumbscrews.

AITA; Not doing anything for husband’s birthdayquote:Thanks for reading! backstory: Married 3 years, together 15. One child. I’ve always been big on doing nice things for my husbands birthday. One year was 1000 dollar golf clubs, a mini surprise party, decorate the house with 200 balloons, big expensive steak dinners. I use to have to save a lot to do it, but seeing him happy like that was worth it.

And remember: Regular 1 and Regular 2 are not friends. They don't really know each other. They recognize one another but there is no real bond here. Regular 1: "I don't want to bother showing my ID. Go cash this out for me and give it back to me later." -Gives 5K casino chip- Regular 2: "Sssuuuure. Yes. I will do this. Excuse me." -Exeunt, pursued by raucous laughter- Regular 1: "Security! I have been stolen from!" Security: "And why did you give them the chip? Which we know you did, voluntarily, because casinos have a trillion cameras." Regular 1: "Uhhhh..."

Lt. Danger posted:I don't understand either. what's this place that's giving out $5000 regularly? They didn't. Regular 1 won 5k+, but apparently at some point after that you have to give ID to prove you are who you say you are when turning the chips into cash. They assumed Regular 2 would turn the other half of their winnings into cash and then give it to them. They assumed poorly. Security doesn't care because the Casino still got their money (5k isn't even a rounding error if the place is pulling in money worth a drat) and Regular 1 was trying to get around having to show an ID so they aren't exactly sympathetic.

I assume if they showed ID the casino would then report to the state that $NAME had $5k worth of income and then they'd have to pay their delinquent child support or something?

You'd have to ask Elissimpark that, they're the one who told the story, I'm just trying to help people understand it. That makes sense, though.

Yeah if you win more than a certain amount the casino can't cash you out until you fill out tax documents. So the person was either trying to avoid taxes specifically, or recorded income that could affect things like liens or child support requirements. Of course for the average gambler, if they actually kept track of their losses, it would more than offset any wins in terms of calculating tax burden. But then they'd have to admit to losing most of the time.

No, this was in Australia. It's to do with money laundering. Staff document transactions $10k or over, or anything they consider suspicious. Gambling winnings aren't taxed here either. There's a millionaire in Tasmania, David Walsh, who made his fortune with computer algorithms for horse racing. The ATO tried to claim he owed back tax on the winnings, with little success. (Also, lol, $5k rounding errors. This is a casino that discovered a dragon's trove of gold coins under the floor beneath a row of pokie machines during a redecoration.)

In Vegas anything over $1,200 gets taxed so you have people trying to pull all kinds of poo poo because that’s a really low amount to have to declare.
